My daughter loves dogs but it’s just not practical to get a real one at the moment. I was hoping that she might enjoy the new Peppy Pups plush toy dog from Flair. There are a couple of different dogs in the range, including a cute Pug and Dalmatian. We received the Peppy Pups Pug,…
A visit to Bhaktivedanta Manor {exploring the local area}
As a stay at home mum I have plenty of free time to help at my children’s school. This is something I love to do. Every week I listen to children read for a couple of hours and I’ve helped on a few school trips too. Last term I was lucky to visit Bhaktivedanta Manor with…

I’ve been making more time for grown up crafting and I love to make the kits and hopefully try something new. I skipped the…
Dressing up for breakfast with BEAR Alphabites
We had some amazing adventures over the Easter holidays. We stayed at home this year but had lots of trips out planned – mainly as my children just have so much energy! We went into London quite a lot, enjoying a trip to the opera and a Star Wars exhibition as well as local days…
Sunny days and outside play
April is going so quickly but the longer days and warmer weather means we spend a lot longer outdoors. This weekend we stayed local because we laid a new floor in my son’s bedroom. Thankfully the children were happy to play outside, especially when they received some special happy mail. Outdoor play is really important…
